Code of Ethics

A Code of Ethics for students of Prima Ballet School promotes ethical behaviour and provides a framework of sound judgement when in the school or community. When someone acts in an unethical manner, it reflects not only on the individual but also the school. In order to ensure the integrity of our community, students, parents/guardians and staff are expected to conduct themselves in a respectful manner.

The Code of Ethics for Students

The key elements of ethical conduct for a registered student at Prima Ballet School is as follows:
